Freedom Tech - Available to all; censorable by no one

I wrote a thought on Ecency yesterday

I keep buying $HIVE at sale prices because I believe it's EXTREMELY undervalued and the price has a huge upside potential.
I might be mistaken, but I'm willing to take my chances.
With all the amazing I win even if price stays like this forever.

And someone answered with this

While you are buying dont allow hive watch to flag you else you would be force too powerdown your account or lick ass for 1- 3 months

Hmmm What a peculiar thought. Imagine that; some one with the power to force me to do something on a blockchain ecosystem. It's certainly hard for me to picture. You see, with blockchain tech, everything is distributed. The data on the HIVE blockchain exists on hundreds of different computers, all online at the same time and validated by independent peers. The data on HIVE is not held by a custodian; it is protected by many, independent, autonomous, distributed entities that don't even have to know each other, let a lone agree with each other. Everybody can participate with or without investing a cent and nobody can stop anybody else. If I want to vote, I can do so, and if I want to vote with more power I can do so too. All I have to do is head to an exchange and trade something for HIVE and power those HIVE up. I can also create value for others and they can pay me in HIVE. I can power up all day, every day of the year and NOBODY can force me to power down.

What an incredible feeling.

The stake I hold can also be used to vote on content created by others that I find valuable on the blockchain. I can vote on content and help them grow and by doing so I help my own account grow at a rate of about 10% per year (~ 7% from curation and about 3% from the blockchain by simply keeping my HIVE tokens staked). Another portion of my stake is held in $HBD stable coin. I use this to hedge my investment a bit. The price of $HBD hovers very close to $1 as it has mechanisms like the HBD Stabilizer to achieve that. HBD also returns 15% when held in your savings account and nobody can force me to do anything with either coins held.

This is freedom tech y'all.

Technology available to all and seizable by no one.

Use it, believe in it and help if grow by showing it to others. Some will brush you off, that's normal, but a few will understand and dip their toes into the freedomverse just like you and I have. If one day they have something you want and are willing to accept HIVE or HBD for it, you can trade.

This is how parallel economies are created.

Free technology also means anybody can use it. Goodies, baddies and people you won't always agree with. It comes with the territory. You can choose to be offended by someone you don't see eye to eye with, but that's entirely up to you. You can rage post, make a video about it, kick, scream and throw a temper tantrum. You can even power down and kick rocks down the street, but again, it's entirely up to you.

Nobody can force you.

This is freedom-land.
